Potch and Polly

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jon Agee. Potch thinks its true love, Polly finds it truly impossible. After spotting Polly at a masquerade ball, Potch goes all out to win Polly's heart. He juggles eggs, they land on her head; he arranges a fireworks display, and more than the sky catches on fire. Although the prose is tedious, the cartoon illustrations are entertaining.
